The
Devil DeVere Series

By

Victoria Vane

BLURB:

(Book #1) A WILD NIGHT'S BRIDE: What happens when a struggling actress and a
grieving widower come together in a night of unbridled debauchery orchestrated
by a bored and machinating rake? With
the devil in charge — there will surely be hell to pay!

(Book
#2) THE VIRGIN HUNTRESS: Desperate
times call for devilish measures…Lady Vesta Chambers is accustomed to getting
what she wants, but when the object of her passion has eyes for another, it’s
time to take matters in hand!

(Book #3) THE DEVIL YOU KNOW : When dealing with the devil it's easy
to be burned…especially when passion ignites the flames…

Beautiful, respectable, and dutiful, Lady Diana
Palmerston-Wriothesley has long resigned herself to her loveless marriage
…until her husband's gambling pushes them to the brink of ruin. Viscount
Ludovic, "The Devil DeVere", is a man accustomed to taking what he
wants according to his whim until he encounters a woman who won't be had at any
price. But will a single night of heavenly passion damn them both forever?

(Book #4) THE
DEVIL'S MATCH: Once
burned twice shy… but when old flames come together…passion reignites...

EXCERPT:

BOOK ONE:

DeVere, on the other hand,
evinced no such qualms. He had already loosened his cravat and was stripping
off his coat.

"As I said earlier, there is no need," Phoebe
insisted. "A couple of buttons and a raised petticoat are all the business
requires."

"How delightfully unromantic you are, my dear!"
He chuckled. "But while most men would be charmed to comply with your
simple wishes, I have quite another game in mind. One that most definitely
requires you to disrobe."

"But what if I don't want to?"

"Oh but you will," he said with a smug smile.

She glared. "You are very sure of yourself!"

He studied his buffed fingernails. "I am sure of Ned.
Thus, we must put on a convincing show."

Her brows came together in a deep scowl. "What do you
mean? What has Ned to do with this?"

"Everything. And at any moment, I expect him to burst
through that door like a raging bull."

"Well, how else is a girl with no mother supposed to
get any education? Although I doubt Mama would have told me very much. So
there's really no reason to be timid, Hew. I already know all about the mating
process. And to the best of my knowledge, the stallions never 'ignored it until it went away.' Please feel free to relieve yourself of it. I would even help
you if you would like. I'm not the least afraid for I have seen much larger
ones."

BOOK THREE:

She wanted him too. He could
see it in the rapid rise of her breasts. He could smell her budding arousal and
would relish bringing her to full bloom. God, how he loved this dance! She had
taken the first tentative steps, yet she still fought her desire, refused to
give in to it, but he would lead her now. He was a master…and a ruthless
bastard.

He moved behind her, his fingers riffled gently through
her hair. He closed his eyes to inhale her faint rose scent mixed with womanly
musk. He dipped his head, letting his breath tickle her ear. She shivered. He
whispered low and sultry. "Do you wish me to name the ways I can please
you? I am delighted to comply if that excites you...although it would please me
far more to demonstrate."

BOOK FOUR:

DeVere rose and came to her,
perching himself on the arm of the settle. "My honorable and straitlaced
brother could never satisfy a woman like you, Diana. He could never plumb the
depths of your passion...unlock your secret desires."

His voice was low and seductive, and the flickering blue
fire in his eyes heated her insides. Diana fiercely tamped down the smoldering
sensation that threatened to reignite feelings she'd struggled to suppress.
"And what would you know of my wants and desires after four years?"

"A great deal." He gave her a slow, confident
smile. "Given that I was the one to unleash them."

Diana averted her face with a bitter laugh. "Thus you
presume to have an exclusive claim to me?"

"Has any other exerted one?" he asked softly. He
reached out a hand and traced a long, manicured finger along her jaw. "You
are still unwed, Diana. Have you taken another lover in my absence?"

"It is none of your business whether I have or not,
and you are grossly impertinent to ask."

He laughed long and low. "I think I have my
answer."

She glared at him, and thus they remained, silently
challenging one another for an interminable beat. Then suddenly his mouth was
on hers, taking, possessing, as if it was indeed, his singular privilege.

Diana leaned into him, teasing his lower lip with her
tongue and sucking it eagerly into her mouth before sinking her teeth into it.
Hard. Savoring the coppery taste of his blood.

"What the hell!" DeVere jerked back with a cry.
He touched his lip and examined the crimson stain on his fingertip, his
expression a mix of outrage and bemusement.

"You took without invitation," Diana said.
"It was a warning not to do so again."
